Ulysse Nardin Astrolabium Galileo Galilei Watch Features Lots Of Info: Doesn't Know How To Share The Knowledge
Ask someone wearing a Ulysse Nardin Astrolabium Galileo Galilei watch what time it is, and they may be forced to flash their wrist at you rather than respond. So what time is it? Your guess is as good as mine. While I can figure it out, this watch reminds me a Dr. Seuss creation gone wrong (all it needs is fur of some sort). So much information, it is virtually a practical joke.The watch is touted as providing information useful to astronomers. Meaning they need something to distract their view for a couple of hours while they figure out what time it is? All kidding aside, this is a nice looking watch, that costs a bundle (used one is on eBay right at over $20k). Only thing, is that it is helplessly confusing. If you study a list of all the features it purportedly has, you'll agree it is impressive, if not overkill.

Marathon Military Navigator Quartz Date Review

More often than not, it's something in between; not outrageously priced, but just out of reach. Well, recently I had such an experience with a watch that is quite affordable, quartz and plastic. That watch is the Marathon Military Navigator Quartz Date.Marathon watches were born of a collaboration between a Canadian watch distributor, the Wein Brothers, and one of the oldest Swiss watch brands, Gallet, whose origins date back to the late 1400's. In the mid 80's the Wein Brothers contracted Gallet to create tough-as-nails watches for distribution to the US and Canadian Armed Forces, thus st

Breitling sold -- Marketing to focus on Digital forgo magazines and bilboards
As a marketing guy and a Breitling owner I thought that the statement by the new owner of Breitling, CVC, was very interesting: they are going to focus on Digital marketing (and distribution). I think anyone in marketing, especially evidenced based marketing has thought to themselves Swiss Watchmakers are pissing money away on billboards and magazines. I know I have, infant I wrote a proposal about for Breitling about how they need to take control of their SERPs.

At AD today
Stopped in my AD to look at the Air King. I did buy my Sub there within the last 2 weeks at 7% off.He still had a good selection but told me to wait as he's starting to get low and could discount when he's replenished . They did have Subs a Deep Sea, BLRO and Bluesey. I guess I'll wait, it's not like I have to have it today.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
